Default What's eating holes in leaves of Ligularia and Farfugium?

Newbie here. Planted a couple of Ligularia dentata (Leopard Plant) and a
Farfugium japonica last year. The latter is especially being eaten hard,
many holes and edges of leaves eaten. I suspect snails or slugs, bUt I
have used some Safer's slug pellets (these are the botanical, safer, less
toxic stuff). Does not seem to make any difference. Any ideas for
assistance appreciated.
